Tho Presidents Trip.

70 nNsToN, Sept. 30. - The train
q, the Presidential party left the
Baltimore and Poiomsc depot at ten
O'clock precisely. The departure from
Washington was under bright sky and
pleasant auspices. An hour before the
trains departure a number OF people as
sembled at the depot, and, while awaiting
tho arrival Of the President and Mrs.
Cleveland, greatly admired the special
train. About quarter to ten O'Clock
the President aud Mrs. Cleveland, &C
esnpanied by Mrs. Folsom, arrived At
the b street entrance, and passing through
the waiting room, at once walked down
the plat orm and entered the President's
private car. Secretaries Fairchtld and
Whitney were waiting on the platform to
see the President of, and Secretary Bayard
and daughter, Secretary Endicott and
and Public Printer Benedict came along
a few minutes later, and all stepped into
the Presidents car. Colonel Lamont,
wife and two children, DR.. Bryant and
Mr.. Bissell and Messrs DeGraw and Bick-
ford, the two press representatives who
accompany the psrty, were all on board
the train. Then there was few minutes
OF hand shaking, with good wishes for q
safe and pleasant journey.
Dispatches from the correspondents or
board the Presidential train tell the story
Of the days journey. All along the rout
crowds were at the stations to catch {
glimpse of the President and Mrs. Cleve-
land At Baltimore a stop was mad
just long enough to change locomotive
and In, excess of solicitude to ex anime tn
car wheels and bearings. At York, Pa
there was an enthus;a astic ovation, and q
Harrisburg the experiences Of York wer
repeated, but with larger and more de
nonstrative crowd, and with the addition
of cannon, banners bearing patriotic de
vices, q goliticai club or two, and recel
tion CON mittee headed by the Mayor
Despite the notice given by the railroa
company that none bst the excursion'si
should beard the train, permission wa
given to the Mayor to pay his respects t
the distinguished visitors. The receptio
committee followed the Mayor and som
patriotic citizens came behind the com
mittee, blocking the wey SO that exit fc
: the first corlers became impossible. Th
railroad people solved the difficulty b
starting the train, capturing Mayor Fiji,
and the committee. The train stopped Z
the edge OF the town and they escaped.
At one OF the small stations seda'
5rown-bearded countrymar, standing vi
lon q bank surrounded by q hundred {
more of bis fellows, Justify beat bal
drum while the others yeled. At al
> other station the resources Of the neigl
borhood were expended upon banne
I whose legend except the words "Love an
: Marriage" and Josiah Pilkins," coul
not be made oHt.
l At Altoona there was a rousing crow
filing every inch of the immense static
/, platform, and 70 far as could be seen
, the gathering darkness all the open regie
roundabout. Every face wore smil
and every voice screeched a welcom
But It was q rough crowd that Deith
threats nor eutreaties could manage, al
the President, who had stepped ef u
car to shake hands, had to retrost to Il
platform. The last hand he shook VI
that of 9 man who climbed upon the 70
of the car and hung head downward ov
the rear.
TOD MUCH LIKE ROYALTY.
MILWAUKEE,, Wis, Sept. 80 by
of ninety seven TO twelve the West Si
Turner Society, the most Influential
the State, declined an Invitation to 10
the procession on the occasion of Pre-
dent Cleveland's visit. The reason |
signed ia that the honors to be paid
